Description
D-Glutamic acid is a non-proteinogenic amino acid enantiomer offered at a minimum purity of 99 % for biochemistry, with CAS number 6893-26-1 and empirical formula C₅H₉NO₄. The molar mass is 147,1 g/mol, and the EG number is 230-000-8, giving a clear identity profile for stereochemical and metabolic studies. This D-isomer is used when enzyme selectivity, chiral resolution, or comparison with L-glutamic acid must be examined under controlled conditions. Applications include peptide-related synthesis, substrate screening, and pathway experiments that depend on absolute configuration. The reagent is Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH as a biochemistry-grade material, it supports reproducible documentation wherever enantiomeric purity is critical. Researchers value a well-specified D-amino acid when validating analytical methods or exploring non-natural building blocks. Standard laboratory handling for solid amino acids should be followed during storage, weighing, and solution preparation.

Questions about D-Glutamic acid, min. 99 %, for biochemistry, 5 g, plastic
What is this article?
D-Glutamic acid, min. 99 %, for biochemistry, 5 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
